Description
A genetic study of the PRF1 gene has shown association of several polymorphisms with multiple sclerosis (MS). Haplotype analysis identified risk haplotypes strongly associated with male patients having the primary-progressive form of MS (PPMS). Gene expression microarrays were performed in 10 male PPMS patients carrying the risk (n=6) and protective haplotypes (n=4) in order to identify pathways associated with the risk haplotypes. Pathway analysis revealed overrepresentation of the cell killing gene ontology category among down-regulated genes in patients carrying risk haplotypes compared with patients carrying protective haplotypes.
